Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

When they say they are pro-life, they do not mean yours.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

The revolution will be supervised.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

This blog will pay for itself.

No one could have predicted…

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

Fish gotta swim

This is awesome (h/t Mike Kay):

Republicans were very pleased with their technological sophistication as they introduced the Web site, America Speaking Out a ceremony at the Newseum. Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), who created the program, said that to get software for the site, “I personally traveled to Washington state and discovered a Microsoft program that helped NASA map the moon.”

Using lunar software is appropriate, because the early responses to the Republicans’ request for ideas are pretty far out:

“End Child Labor Laws,” suggests one helpful participant. “We coddle children too much. They need to spend their youth in the factories.”

“How about if Congress actually do thier job and VET or Usurper in Chief, Obama is NOT a Natural Born Citizen in any way,” recommends another. “That fake so called birth certificate is useless.”

“A ‘teacher’ told my child in class that dolphins were mammals and not fish!” a third complains. “And the same thing about whales! We need TRADITIONAL VALUES in all areas of education. If it swims in the water, it is a FISH. Period! End of Story.”

My favorite by far is the fish thing.

I just signed up for an account.

Update. More gold standardism than I would have expected. I don’t think these are all spoofs.

Update. In honor of the late, great blogs4brownback, I’m promoting this one.

Update. They seem to have deleted most of the ideas. Sad.

Update. It’s back up with all the ideas and responses intact.
